STR or LTR

How much should the condition of a property's landscaping play into your decision to LTR or STR? Property is in a good neighborhood and had $30k of remodel done after purchase. New roof, scraped popcorn ceiling, paint, texture, flooring, new appliances. Outside of the house needs landscaping and has some grading issues. How much would this play into your decision between the 2 options?

IMHO, it is more important that a STR have a cute exterior than a LTR. Doesn't have to be extraordinary, but should be above-average attractive for sure.....
